Miracle Of The Hudson Analysis

Decent Essays
Have you ever confronted with any unpredictable problem? If we confront with an unpredictable problem, we usually can't meet the problem and even stop thinking. However, some people who have a great ability to react solve the situation calmly and rationally. 'SULLY' is the best example of it, and the movie impacted me in powerful ways. This movie is referring about 'Miracle of the Hudson' that occurred in 2009. In the movie, the captain of the airplane fell on the Hudson Lake saved his passengers by demonstrating his excellent ability to react. When the airplane crashed to droves of birds, he reacted calmly, so he succeeded emergency landing on the lake. Ultimately, he saved 155 people safely. There are a lot of lessons that I learned through

    As Helen Keller once said, “Keep your face to the sunshine and you will not see a shadow.” This can also mean that the most effective way of getting through a crisis is to have a positive outlook, and not to focus on the negatives. In Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl — a series of journal entries that Anne Frank wrote while she and her family were hiding from the Nazi regime — Anne attempts to have a positive attitude no matter what the circumstances. She fought for her own life and for her loved ones’ lives, and her mental strength is one reason why she made it as long as she did. If she hadn’t looked on the bright side, despite her bleak situation, she would've never had the faith or will to survive.…

    There is an unmistakable tension between the colonists and Great Britain. Outbursts of violence were becoming more frequent every day, and the question of independence hung in the air.

This written agreement that the pilgrims would live in a “Civil Body Politic” as they obeyed “just and equal laws” enacted by their representatives for the benefit of their community, was the first written framework of self-government for the American Colonies.…

He explains how having virtue means doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right way, in the right amount, towards the right people. It is safe to categorize Colin Kaepernick as a virtuous person for being a genuinely benevolent and honest man. Kaepernick’s failure to stand while the national anthem was playing can be validated as appropriate behavior through virtue ethics. “A courageous person will assess the situation, they will know their own abilities, and they will take action that is right in a particular situation” Explain aristotles theory and quote him Colin Kaepernick, a backup quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, started a national…

They display disparate themes but use the setting of a futuristic society to show flaws in varying ideas of perfection. The society in Harrison Bergeron shows a “perfect” society through the concept of everyone being equal while The Big Trip Up Yonder shows the idea of living forever. Both of these stories show a possible outcome for popularly explored concepts.…

The Warden ended up committing suicide and I feel that was the ultimate penitence that the Warden had to pay in order for his crimes to be forgiven.…
